LKG1H272MESZAK

The LKG1H272MESZAK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal (radial can) configuration designed specifically for audio equipment. It delivers 2.7 mF capacitance at a 50 V rating with a ±20% tolerance and is intended for high‑grade and HD audio applications where fidelity and reliable power filtering matter.

Key characteristics include a measured tan δ of 0.3, a compact 22 mm diameter by 30 mm length footprint, a rated operating temperature range from −40 °C to +85 °C, and a specified endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2.7 mF rated capacitance at 50 V with ±20% tolerance, suitable for DC filtering and smoothing in audio power supplies.
• Audio‑focused design — Series and part description emphasize high‑grade audio use and priority on high fidelity sound quality for HD audio equipment.
• Loss characteristics — Specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.3 (measurement context provided by the product data), supporting predictable AC loss behavior at audio frequencies.
• Package & mounting — Snap‑in terminal, radial can package for secure board mounting and robust mechanical retention in audio chassis and assemblies.
• Thermal & reliability — Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C operation and endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C when operated at rated voltage.
• Ripple handling — Rated ripple current of 2 A at 120 Hz, suitable for typical power supply ripple conditions in audio systems.
• Compact footprint — Physical size approximately 22 mm diameter × 30 mm length to fit constrained layouts while providing substantial capacitance.
• RoHS compliant — Complies with RoHS directive as stated in the product information.

Typical Applications

• High‑grade audio amplifiers — Bulk filtering and power supply smoothing where stable DC rails contribute to lower noise and improved audio fidelity.
• HD audio equipment — Designed to meet the sound quality needs of high‑definition audio systems and components.
• Audio power supplies — Decoupling and ripple suppression in the power stages of preamplifiers, DACs, and active speakers.

Unique Advantages

• Audio‑centric engineering: Explicit design priority on high fidelity sound quality makes this part suitable for audio‑focused designs.
• Reliable thermal endurance: 1000 hours at 85 °C endurance rating provides predictable life performance under rated conditions.
